Nightlife

St. Lawrence Gap, on the south coast, is party central, but the northern section of Holetown (known locally as First and Second Street) has a number of spots for more sophisticated night owls. These include Lexy Piano Bar (Second Street; 246-432-5399; www.lexypianobar.com), run by former Broadway star Alex Santoriello; and the Friday-night hot spot the Mews (Second Street; 246-432-1122), where you’ll see everyone from locals and nearby restaurant owners to celebrities like Minnie Driver (who was raised in Barbados until the age of seven). Just up the road, across from Daphne’s, is the more modestly priced though still chic Scarlet (Payne's Bay, St. James; 246-432-3663) where you can sip cocktails amid Warhol-like prints of Marilyn Monroe and Jackie O.
